Floating Subtitles
Live Translated Subtitles Over Any App
Whisperr floats real-time translated captions on top of whatever you’re watching — YouTube, Netflix, TikTok, Twitch, and more — on iOS, Android, Mac, Windows, or the Web App, so you never switch apps. 100+ languages, ~0.2s latency.
How floating subtitles work
Turn it on once, then use any app — captions follow you.

Enable Floating Subtitles
On iOS or Android, open Whisperr, start transcription, and toggle on Floating Subtitles. On Mac or Windows, switch the source to System audio — subtitles appear in a small always-on-top window you can make fully transparent.

Switch to any app
On mobile, open YouTube, Netflix, TikTok, Twitch, or another supported app and the translated captions float on top of whatever’s playing. On desktop, the floating window stays on top of whatever your computer is playing.

Read while you watch
Captions stay on screen in your language while the app underneath keeps running — no app switching, no split screen.
What users say
Whisperr review
“I love how easy Whisperr is to use and how it accurately understands and translates text and speech across different languages. It's so effective that even in scenarios where other tools might fail, Whisperr performs perfectly. Additionally, the ability to select languages for translation directly on a phone is fantastic. This feature helps us translate church services, ensuring everyone understands without missing anything important. The initial setup was straightforward, making it smooth to start using immediately.”
Fast Translations and a Clear, Easy-to-Read Layout
“It translated really fast, and the way the text appears on the screen—with its clear layout—is very easy to read.”
Whisperr Delivers Lightning-Fast, Highly Accurate Real-Time Translation
“The translation is extremely fast and accurate; after comparing several programs, I consider Whisperr to be the fastest and most accurate real-time translation app.”
Top-Notch Speech Recognition and Flashcard-Style Translations for Fast Study
“Whisperr's speech recognition and translation quality are both top-notch, and better than similar tools I've tried so far. Beyond that, as a Japanese learner, I especially like how Whisperr displays each sentence and its translation almost like flashcards, with a text-to-speech button for each one. That setup makes studying feel fast and efficient, and it's easy to review sentence by sentence.”
Simple Real-Time Translation for Work
“I like best about Whisperr is that it feels simple and straightforward to use.”
Awesome
“This is very useful, extremely user-friendly, easy to use, and the recognition capability is very precise, with very fast speed. It should be the most accurate and fastest translation I've used so far.”
Easy to use
“Whisperr is easy to get started and no hassle at all. A great tool to learn languages and for travelling.”
Exceptional outcomes
“I attempted English to Hindi translation and achieved highly accurate results.”
Amazing
“Using it for Spanish to English and it’s amazing!”
Worth hundreds of thousands of yen
“The same performance as other conversation translation apps. Those charge by the minute, but this one is apparently a one-time purchase, so the value for money is outstanding. Compared with about five similar apps, this one is the best on both performance and price. I wonder whether it was made by a Japanese developer??”
